AARs New Streaming RIFF......Pathetic
Edited on Wed Jan-04-06 08:58 PM by rsmith6621

Air Americas attempt to fill gaps between commercial on WEBSTREAM keeps getting pathetic....the newest RIFF is simply horrible to my ears. I would prefer they just leave the space SILENT.....or at least a little less BASS-e....

Also is the only ads they can fill their streaming format with TAX Lawyers and Credit Counciling companys?....I think they need some new advertising salespeople.

I wonder if this is an attempt by AAR to sale XM Radio.

End of RANT!

2. Do what I do...
Since I'm not really concerned with listening live, I download the podcasts and listen on the way to work. No commercials, and the breaks are cut out.

3. So I am not hearing things
I think the riff bites a wax tadpole. Are you picking up what I am putting down AAR?

6. I understand they are blocking ads targeted for the NYC area.
Probably a new contractual thing.

7. It's MUCH better than the riff from a few weeks ago
Oddly, they didn't used to play that horrible music on Windows Media until the new year. Hmmmm..
